London: Gigi Hadid has amazed fans with her chic bob hairstyle, blending Hollywood waves with a flippy finish. Other celebrities are also embracing this trend. A step-by-step guide is provided for those wanting to replicate this elegant look ahead of Valentine’s Day.

Gigi Hadid has once again captivated her fans with a stunning new hairstyle that showcases the versatility and romantic appeal of a bob. Last year, the supermodel surprised many by transitioning from her long blonde locks to a chic chin-length bob, and her latest Instagram post further demonstrates the trendy potential of this look.

In the recent post, Hadid sported a hairstyle that melded the elegance of Hollywood waves with the spirited flair of a flippy bob. Her hair was styled with a deep side part, featuring loose, sleek waves that gracefully framed her face in a dramatic ‘S’ shape around her cheekbones and ears. The ends of her bob were styled to flick upward, evoking a sense of timeless glamour reminiscent of classic Hollywood while also channeling style icons from the 1990s, such as Drew Barrymore.

Hadid is not alone in her embrace of this hairstyle trend; other high-profile celebrities, including Zendaya, Kim Kardashian, and Selena Gomez, have also been seen sporting variations of the 90s Hollywood bob in recent appearances.

For those looking to replicate Gigi’s look ahead of Valentine’s Day, a series of steps can help achieve this hairstyle. Starting with a deep side part, the style is ideally suited for hair without layers or face-framing pieces. However, those with layered hair can utilise short clip-in hair extensions to create a more uniform appearance.

To begin, it is recommended to spritz damp hair with heat protectant and a firm-hold volumizing mousse. A medium-sized round brush can be employed to blow-dry the hair, ensuring to focus on building volume at the hairline, particularly in the t-section which should be directed upwards and towards the back of the head.

Next, curling the hair with a large-barrel curling iron will help achieve the desired look. For a more relaxed appearance, the hair should be curled around the barrel in a single twist. Key to the style is sculpting the hair into the signature ‘S’ shape, allowing the wave to curl around the ear on the dominant side and tucking the hair behind the ear on the opposite side. To ensure the curls hold, it’s advised to pin them in place while they cool using no-crease clips or bobby pins.

For the finishing touches, either a curling iron or hair straightener can be used to create the flicks at the ends of the bob. Completing the look with a shine spray and a firm-hold hairspray will ensure the style remains intact throughout the day.

These detailed steps provide a practical guide for anyone wishing to adopt this fashionable and romantic hairstyle, as seen on Gigi Hadid and other notable celebrities. The information was shared in an article by Nicole Petty, a hair expert from Milk & Blush.
